• A Test of Two Models of Value Creation in Virtual Communities AI翻译

  摘要：Does a firm get any extra value from investing resources in sponsoring its own virtual community above and beyond the value that could be created for the firm, indirectly, via customer-initiated communities? If so, what explains the extra value derived from a firm-sponsored virtual community and how might this understanding inform managers about appropriate strategies for leveraging virtual communities as part of a value-creating strategy for the firm? We test two models of virtual community t...
• Facilitator-in-a-Box: Process Support Applications to Help Practitioners Realize the Potential of Collaboration Technology AI翻译

  摘要：The potential benefits of collaboration technologies are typically realized only in groups led by collaboration experts. This raises the facilitator-in-the-box challenge: Can collaboration expertise be packaged with collaboration technology in a form that nonexperts can reuse with no training on either tools or techniques? We address that challenge with process support applications (PSAs). We describe a collaboration support system (CSS) that combines a computer-assisted collaboration engineer...
• The Effect of Social Capital of the Relationship Between the CIO and Top Management Team on Firm Performance AI翻译

  摘要：The paper empirically examines the effects of social capital of the relationship between the chief information officer (CIO) and top management team (TMT) on organizational value creation based on responses from CIOs and matched TMT respondents from 81 hospitals in the United States. Specifically, we theorize how the three dimensions of social capital-structural, cognitive, and relational social capital-facilitate knowledge exchange and combination between the CIO and TMT resulting in the alig...

  摘要：Online whistle-blowing reporting systems (WBRS) have become increasingly prevalent channels for reporting organizational failures. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and similar international laws now require firms to establish whistle-blowing (WB) procedures and WBRSs, increasing the importance of WB research and applications. Although the literature has addressed conventional WB behavior, it has not explained or measured the use of WBRSs in online contexts that could significantly alter elements of anon...
• Effect Mechanisms of Perceptual Congruence Between Information Systems Professionals and Users on Satisfaction with Service AI翻译
  作者：Benlian, Alexander
  作者单位：Technical University of Darmstadt
  摘要：With the proliferation of available electronic service channels for information systems (IS) users such as mobile or intranet services in companies, service interactions between IS users and IS professionals have become an increasingly important factor for organizational business-IT alignment. Despite the increasing relevance of such interactions, the implications of agreement or disagreement on the fulfillment of critical service quality factors for successful alignment and higher user satisf...
• Health-Care Security Strategies for Data Protection and Regulatory Compliance AI翻译
  作者：Kwon, Juhee; Johnson, M. Eric
  作者单位：City University of Hong Kong; Vanderbilt University
  摘要：This study identifies how security performance and compliance influence each other and how security resources contribute to two security outcomes: data protection and regulatory compliance. Using simultaneous equation models and data from 243 hospitals, we find that the effects of security resources vary for data breaches and perceived compliance and that security operational maturity plays an important role in the outcomes. In operationally mature organizations, breach occurrences hurt compli...
• Emotions and Information Diffusion in Social Media-Sentiment of Microblogs and Sharing Behavior AI翻译
  作者：Stieglitz, Stefan; Dang-Xuan, Linh
  作者单位：University of Munster
  摘要：As a new communication paradigm, social media has promoted information dissemination in social networks. Previous research has identified several content-related features as well as user and network characteristics that may drive information diffusion. However, little research has focused on the relationship between emotions and information diffusion in a social media setting. In this paper, we examine whether sentiment occurring in social media content is associated with a user's information ...

  摘要：Two types of information technology (IT) outsourcing governance-contractual and relational-are commonly employed to address different goals in IT service management in outsourcing arrangements. Contractual governance helps improve efficiency in an outsourcing relationship, whereas relational governance facilitates satisfying changing business needs. Past literature argues that both forms of governance are important and that an appropriate balance between them is necessary. This study finds tha...
• Firm Strategy and the Internet in US Commercial Banking AI翻译
  作者：Goh, Kim Huat; Kauffman, Robert J.
  作者单位：Nanyang Technological University; Singapore Management University
  摘要：As information technology (IT) becomes more accessible, sustaining any competitive advantage from it becomes challenging. This has caused some critics to dismiss IT as a less valuable resource. We argue that, in addition to being able to generate strategic advantage, IT should also be viewed as a strategic necessity that prevents competitive disadvantage in rapidly changing business environments. We test a set of hypotheses on strategic advantage and strategic necessity in the context of Inter...
• The Governance and Control of Open Source Software Projects AI翻译
  作者：Di Tullio, Dany; Staples, D. Sandy
  作者单位：Queens University - Canada
  摘要：A comprehensive set of governance mechanisms and dimensions were investigated to identify combinations of mechanisms that are effectively used together in on-going volunteer-based open source software (OSS) projects. Three configurations were identified: Defined Community, Open Community, and Authoritarian Community. Notably, Defined Community governance had the strongest coordination and project climate and had the most extensive use of outcome, behavior, and clan control mechanisms (controll...
